Hello Mark, Thank you for adding a comment to this brief "RIP" article. If you could provide me with maybe a little more information and a more recent photograph of Gordon Stinson, I would be very keen to include a proper obituary on this blog. Please send information to me at webmaster@bostonian.org.uk . Thank you. Simon
